Sometimes, you just need that straight-forward, no frills, clean and
lean drum groove. If you do pop, rock, smooth jazz, or cross-over, a pure
live drum sound is absolutely essential. Even in todays dance and
R&B, the tight and crisp sound of an unadulterated drum kit is pure
gold. This is why Backbeat may become the most important library in your
collection!
Producers Eric Persing and Bob Wilson recorded four world-class drummers
in numerous legendary studios, with some of the best drum rooms on the
planet. The playing is right in the pocket by LA drummers with legendary
feels. The very latest recording technology was used to capture a stunningly
Hi-Fi, yet very natural sound. Every groove has a unique kit and mix!
The variety of sounds within this single library is astonishing.
The featured players include:
Gregg Bissonette (Santana, Joe Satriani, Don Henley)
Bob Wilson (Liquid Grooves, George Benson, The Crusaders)
John Ferraro (Larry Carlton, David Benoit, Albert Lee, Aaron Neville)
